Just wanted to share the shipping weight
Of a 507 sedan according to Mercedes MSO (the document needed to get title). See photo. 3,823/lbs. Not sure how much fuel was in there. If anyone knows how much fuel they leave to factory with please chime in

Very cool info.
Thanks for sharing. Our cars our heavy beasts; that's for sure.
New F80 M3 weighs about 3,300 lbs.

I'm pretty sure they have to be shipped empty or almost empty.
I remember a friend shipped a car from US to Germany and it had to be running in almost empty.
1 gallon is 6 lbs 17.4 gallon tank
The 2008 - 09 - 10 - 11's c63's were around 3920lbs empty so the 507's that come with aluminum hood and light weight internal and rotors and rims should equal to 80lbs or so. You cars weight sounds to be tire.
Btw new c63 should be around 200 lbs lighter so not bad if it's around 3600 lbs.
